YAYsports! NBA

(Jack Cobra on the attack this Friday. In lieu of a picture of David Stern, you get Jessica Alba at a basketball game. You guys have been screaming for an Alba pic, so there it is. I could only find a pic of her in a bikini throwing a football, but since this is a […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. He did not write this and does not know why I chose to write about a pre-NBA player.)
It sounds as if the best player in college basketball last season is going to declare himself eligible for the 2007 NBA Draft. During his one season at Texas, […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. The following was not written by him…it was actually written by Greg Oden’s beard.)
Yes, he’s 12 feet tall. Yes, he can block three point shots while standing in the lane. Yes, he nearly won the National Championship for Ohio State by scoring 800 points and grabbing 532 […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. The following was not written by him, however he firmly believes that John Locke will turn into an “Other” on ‘Lost’)
*This will be my last post of the day, so thanks for taking it easy on me today. I’ll be around next Tuesday, unless The Cavalier […]

We’ve read roughly 47 articles and columns on the game last night, and one thing is clear - as we’ve said for some time (and been mildly criticized for), the Pistons have an overinflated sense of self.
We were willing to concede Game 3 was complacency on their part…until Game 4 went pretty much exactly the […]

That’s purely from a point-of-interest standpoint, but it’s true.
San Antonio and Sacramento (now at 2-2) is an interesting series, but when the #2 Heat are having a public implosion while losing to the #7 Bulls, there’s simply no contest as to who gets our attention.
In case you missed it, Dwyane Wade and Gary Payton […]

We all know about Tony Parker rapping. Shaq, too. Most of you probably remember Allen Iverson giving it a go, and even Kobe Bryant took a turn, although that was buried more than most for some reason.
Chris Webber apparently lays down beats on actual hip-hop albums under an alias, and that may be common […]

In preparation for tomorrow’s Game 3 in Chicago, the media in Miami are dancing around star guard Dwyane Wade’s weird leg cramps.
The team is saying he needs to be more closely examined, which for some reason hasn’t happened. Are there no hospitals in Miami? We know there are some in Chicago, so maybe they can […]

As you may remember, Sonia was crowned our YAYsports! Person of the Year SomethingSomething and Something - we don’t feel like looking it up - it was some nonsensical title that was surely hilarious at the time, and has only aged with grace and style.
Also aging with grace and style is Sonia herself, who celebrates […]

It’s been a good day’s work here - not only did we vanquish the evil SportsOrbis, but now LeBron has done something no player in the history of the NBA has done: win the Player of the Week for three straight weeks.
The All-Star forward earned the honor for a record third straight week Monday after […]
